Flying High

This is a song that A.V.A., a seven-year-old girl across the street, made up on the spot.

Have you ever looked up at the sky, saying--
Why can't I just fly up there?
I wanna see how the world is like
without me bein' there...
I just wanna be above the stars, flyin' high.
You know, there's one place where everyone's goin',
No one has to know.
I just want to fly up to the moon.
You know there's one place,
That's that one place
I wanna go.
I've never been there,
but I always wanted to do it..
There's one place...
but I don't know how to do...
One place I can,
but I can't get there-
There's one place I'll do--
and that's up at the moon
You know that's the only place
Where I ever thought I should go.
I know I have to go--
I've always wanted to go...


Really good for on-the-spot, at age 7. The melody makes it completely magical.
